Alumni | Annabel's Story

Annabel achieved outstanding results at HSDC, gaining Biology (A*), Environmental Science (A), and Geography (A). Her time at college wasn’t just about academic success—it was also about unforgettable experiences.

Annabel said:
“The opportunity to travel to Iceland with Geography and see the Northern Lights, was an amazing experience.”

This trip gave Annabel the chance to see her studies come to life and explore the world beyond the classroom.

Careers

I’m very, very happy, I didn’t expect to do so well. The College has been helpful and supportive. I loved my courses, and the teachers were really good – every single one of them. The facilities are great, but it’s the staff that really make this place.

Matthew Randell, A Level student

The teaching and support was absolutely brilliant, they couldn’t have done anything more or anything better, if I had any questions my lecturers would always stay behind to help me if I needed it and their emails were always open, it was second to none. This college is the best by far.

Amber Searle, BTEC student

My experience at the College was great, it’s very different to school, and I think it’s a good step to going to university. The support was amazing, I loved all of my teachers, they helped me through everything. The College is friendly and you will succeed.
